ICHIRO'S MALT CHICHIBU SINGLE CASK "BIRD AND SNAKE" #5790 63.7% ABV

ICHIRO'S MALT CHICHIBU SINGLE CASK "BIRD AND SNAKE" #5790 63.7% ABV

One of the five single cask releases exclusive to the United States for 2024 Cask #5790 was distilled in 2016 from both Propino and Concerto barley. It was matured in a single first fill ex-bourbon barrel and bottled at 63.7% ABV. Each of these five single casks for 2024 is labeled with a woodblock print image from the highly influential Edo Period artist Kawanabe Kyosai. Earning the nickname "The Drawing Demon" from his mentor in the artistic studies of his youth, Kyosai went on to be one of Japan's first political satirists, who is considered by many to be the spiritual successor to the great ukiyo-e artist Hokusai. Like Kawanabe san's art, Ichiro makes his whiskies on his own terms to uncompromising quality and effect.
